Couple Garden
No. 6, Xiaoxinqiao Lane, Cang Street, Gusu District, Suzhou City (near Pingjiang Road)
- Cou Garden was originally named She Garden. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Shen Bingcheng built the garden into its current layout and named it Cou Garden. One reason is that there is a residential area in the middle, and there are two gardens on the east and west sides, forming a shape like a lotus root. The other reason is that when he was at the lowest point in his life, he met the talented woman Yan Yonghua, and the two lived in seclusion in the garden for 8 years. It means "a good couple".
